Not long after they exited the famous yellow house – Chiu was the edition’s grand winner, while Anderson finished 3rd – the two were tapped to topbill the drama series “Sana Maulit Muli” the following year.

Due to the success of their first TV series together, “Kimerald,” as they were referred to by their fans, were cast opposite each other in several other soaps—“My Girl” in 2008, “Tayong Dalawa” in 2009, and “Kung Tayo’y Magkakalayo” in 2010.

Their “love team” was also tested on the big screen via “I’ve Fallen For You” in 2007, and “Paano Na Kaya” and “Till My Heartaches End,” both released in 2010.

Anderson credited the popularity of his tandem with Chiu to their chemistry. “It’s both sides talaga, e. I think it’s the chemistry naming dalawa. Siyempre, hindi po mag-si-survive ang isa kung wala ‘yung isa kasi we had great chemistry,” he said. (MNS)
